  • OCLC Expert Cataloging Community Sharing Session Minutes, January 2007
    Enhance Sharing Session at ALA Midwinter Seattle, Washington, 2007 January 22 Based on Notes by Rich Greene, OCLC Edited by Jay Weitz Forty or more members of the OCLC cooperative gathered for the Enhance Sharing Session during the American Library Association Midwinter Conference in Seattle on Monday, 2007 January 22. Enhance Coordinator Jay Weitz moderated the meeting, with valuable assistance from his OCLC colleague Rich Greene. An informal show of hands suggested that at least two representatives from RLG institutions were present. Highlights from the handout “News from OCLC,” the full text of which follows this report, were noted. • Connexion client 1.70 release: See details at http://www.oclc.org/connexion/interface/client/enhancements/recent.htm. • OCLC’s Bibliographic Formats and Standards Has Been Updated: The text is a va ila ble a t http://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/. • Getty Vocabularies Have Been Added to OCLC Terminologies Service: See details at http://www.oclc.org/terminologies/. • WorldCat Selection Service Helps Streamline Selection, Ordering: See deta ils a t http://www.oclc.org/selection/. Kate Harcourt (Columbia University) had submitted a question beforehand about how RLG institutions would be included in the Enhance program and if there would be any alterations in the record review process. Because the situation differs so much from institution to institution, we long ago decided that, to be as fair as possible across the board, separate Enhance applications would be requested for each OCLC symbol. At least that has generally been the case, except when the same institutional staff happens to be working under multiple OCLC symbols for one reason or another.

Metadata for Digital Projects: An Overview of Practical Issues and Challenges Presenter 1 Title Head of Digital Art History, Getty Research Institute (emerita) ; Adjunct Professor, UCLA Department of Information Studies (emerita) Session Type Workshop Abstract This three-hour workshop will provide an overview of practical issues relating to metadata and controlled vocabularies for digital resources. There will be a review of metadata standards and vocabulary tools; project management and project planning considerations; and issues relating to publication formats, usability, and sustainability. Issues of metadata for the “Visible Web” and the “Deep Web” will also be addressed. Workshop participants will do an in-classroom exercise in which they will create a “storyboard” for a proposed digital project, including a high-level metadata model and proposed vocabularies to be used, as well as their strategies for how users will find and interact with their proposed digital resources.
